Ingredients:

Serving

1 lb green beans, ends trimmed (fresh )
2 tbsp butter
1 tbsp olive oil
3 tbsp shallots, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 cup low-sodium vegetable stock or broth
3 tbsp mustard ( grainy)
3 tbsp creme fraiche (can substitute sour cream or yogurt)
1/2 tsp sea salt (or kosher)
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
2 tsp tarragon, chopped (fresh )
1 tsp thyme, chopped (fresh )

Directions:

Bring a large pot of salted water to boil and add green beans.
Let cook for 2-3 minutes until tender-crisp and remove to a large bowl filled with ice water. Let beans cool, then drain and set aside.

Add shallots and cook until soft but not brown, about 2 minutes.
Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more. Add wine and vegetable stock, and bring to a boil.
Turn heat to medium-low and simmer until liquid reduces by half.

Add green beans to sauce and stir coat. Cover and let beans heat in the sauce over medium-low, about 3 minutes.
